Nikon introduces the smallest and lightest full-frame Z series prime lens yet1: the NIKKOR Z 28mm f/2.8. This street-smart storyteller makes a superb everyday lens. Wide but not too wide, wonderfully affordable, and deceptively powerful, it’s ready for everything from street scenes to landscapes and situational portraits. 

This bright 28 mm prime lens offers an expansive angle of view that’s just right for showing more of the scene, while the 0.19 m minimum focus distance puts this lens in the sweet spot for dramatic close-ups. The wide Z mount and rounded f/2.8 aperture combine to allow superb low-light performance, and image-makers can put their subject in focus against incredibly soft, natural-looking background bokeh.

The NIKKOR Z 28mm f/2.8 also makes it easy to shoot great-looking video footage. The 28 mm focal length is a cinematic classic, and with such a lightweight lens the user gets to choose whether to shoot handheld or with a gimbal. 

Bright f/2.8 wide-angle lens

28 mm focal length captures wide-angle shots with rich colour and contrast. 

Ultra-portable

the lens is approx. 43 mm long and weighs in at approx. 155 g. Easily small enough to keep on the camera or slip into a coat pocket.

Beautiful bokeh

the wide Z mount and fixed f/2.8 rounded 7-blade aperture enable incredibly soft, natural-looking bokeh.

Superb up close

a minimum focus distance of 0.19 m allows users to focus sharply at close range. 

Fast, silent AF

Powered by an ultra-quiet stepping motor and enhanced by the additional light gathered by the Z mount, focusing is fast, accurate—and silent.

Great for video

Focus breathing is dramatically reduced so the focus can be adjusted without affecting the shot's angle of view.

42 mm DX crop

Offers a 42 mm angle of view when used with a DX-format Nikon Z camera. 

Easy control

the silent control ring can be set to control focus, aperture, exposure compensation, or ISO. 

Well protected

sealed for protection against dust and water droplets.
